Pensioner hid part of the money under the bridge and transferred the rest to a stranger's account

A 76-year-old resident of the capital contacted the Minsk police. He and his wife became victims of fraud and declared 15 thousand dollars, writes "Minsk Police".

Following instructions from telephone scammers, the pensioner left a bundle of money under the bridge, and the next day went to the post office and transferred the remaining funds from his bank card and his wife's card to a stranger's account.

The man was deceived using an intercom replacement scheme and was asked to provide a code from an SMS message. Then they called him again and started threatening him with criminal liability for contact with criminals.

The pensioner got scared and agreed to "declare" his savings so that they would not be confiscated during a search. Then he told his wife everything. The woman also did not recognize the deception, helped her husband collect the money, and even called a taxi for him.

The fraud was only discovered when the elderly husband and wife reported the incident to their son.
